Got my hands on this issue after a couple of months and after building the hardware, downloading an image, unpacking it, writing the image to an SD card, mucking around with monitor settings and continuing with the set up guide (and Google searching), it now seems that various details are required including a Credit Card and a phone number.

By default I am a business, cannot change this.

So the real question is can someone please point me in the direction of a step by step guide for an individual in the UK who is not interested in giving the details above just to muck about with voice control?

I mean the AIY image has updated since the AIY image the MagPi was based on.
And Google have improved their site
I'm sure I filled this https://aiyprojects.withgoogle.com/voic ... istant-api
Which now doesn't ask for it by defaultand just don't do part 3, you of course then cannot so that part. But just use the local voice.

If anyone knows more, pop into the AIY section on here (link as there area lot of sections viewforum.php?f=114 )
